The Latest Breaking News from Global Warming

The UK government recently announced plans to fund five small-scale trials related to geoengineering. It’s the first time a state research funding body has put serious money into what’s known as solar radiation management, or SRM, which seeks to cool the planet by reflecting more of the Sun’s energy back…

Scientists say greenhouse gases from the burning of fossil fuels such as coal have already locked in enough global warming to doom many of the world's glaciers.

The landslide that buried a Swiss village and riverbed this week is refocusing attention on the role of global warming in glacier collapses around the world

A German court ruled has against a Peruvian farmer in a landmark climate lawsuit where he claimed that global warming fueled by energy company RWE’s historical greenhouse gas emissions put his home at risk

An abrupt change in Antarctica has caused the continent to gain ice. But this increase, documented in NASA satellite data, is a temporary anomaly rather than an indication that global warming has reversed, scientists say.

Researchers have also warned that even limiting global warming to 1.5°C won’t save our polar ice sheets.

Rising seas will severely test humanity's resilience in the second half of the 21st century and beyond, even if nations defy the odds and cap global warming at the ambitious 1.5 degrees Celsius target, researchers said Tuesday.

“The longer we delay emissions cuts, the more we burden future generations with irreversible change”.

Human emissions of greenhouse gases have caused rapid global warming. This has made high-impact, heat extreme events around the globe more and more intense over the past 70 years. Heat extremes, such as heatwaves, can cause severe damage to infrastructure by damaging bridges and railways. They also harm ecosystems, and…

Fifty richest billionaires produce more carbon emissions in under three hours than average British person does in their lifetime
